You can read more about why I'm doing listings here. Long story short: This curated and decidedly non-comprehensive list contains nothin' but shows that I am going to/would go to if I had more time.
Gig of the week:
Track Could Bend #22 (feat. New Positions / Melk / Clara Engel & Neil Wiernik) / Dundas Video 2017-01-03 (Tuesday – PWYC!) [FB event]
New year, New Positions! Once again, I'm starting off my year's gig-going at my own monthly series — there's warm weather in the forecast and a mix of warm sounds. Since I last saw 'em, New Positions has mutated again, with HSY's C. Jude and Germaphobes' Neil Rankin being joined by Bile Sister's Julie Reich. Trumpeter Emily Denison has just put out a tape with Hamilton's super-cool HAVN collective and will be joined for a set by guitarist Alexei Orechin. And Clara Engel will be setting aside her songs for some sonic explorations with Neil Wiernik. As always, it's PWYC, and we'll wrap up by 11 o'clock for anyone that has to be at school or work on Wednesday morning.
